http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:F6kqXWKmUwENUM:http://www.tcmagazine.com/images/news/Hardware/NZXT/NZXT_Gamma_01.jpgThe Gamma Midtower wants you to keep your cool. It boasts 6 fan capability including dedicated VGA/CPU cooling and a unique front panel design that allows extra air to enter through the front. Creating a vortex through your tower will keep the hotest running CPU and VGA running optimally.  If that is not cool enough NZXT also includes pre-drilled watercooling holes on the backplate and mounting holes for a dual radiator at the top. This NZXT Gamma gives you everything you need for a sharp look and  clean build with punched motherboard holes and a turned HDD cage which keeps cabling as discrete as possible.  Sounds appealing doesn't it... Let's have a closer look !

  • High end graphics card support, the Gamma features space that is especially designed to fit longer 10." cards 
Come on, if these features aren’t testament to its cooling ability then I don’t know what is. Now let’s get to my final thoughts:

Conclusion:

So how did this case stack up? In my opinion, and in most people’s minds, this case did really well. From its sleek sexy look, and massive blowing power this case is a no brainer. The NZXT Gamma Chassis price is competetive and it has the potential to keep most anything cool.

Would I recommend this case? Yes, yes I would. For gamers that like to have massive amounts of storage or multiple backups this case would be perfect. Hell this case would make a great server without going to the extent of having a rack mount home server or small office server. I think that the design and looks of this case are appealing though not eye popping. From the placement of the power, reset, and front mounted ports to the sleek LEDs placed on the front panel it is a winner. The NZXT Gamma would be a great option for any gamer or home office.

Pros:

  • Great at Sucking and Blowing
  • Sleek design some LED lighting
  • Great Placement of Front Panel
  • Modern Design
  • Server Like Storage
  • Good Price

Cons:

  • Fully loading it with fans make it a little noisy
